i just love itDue to the very high number of complaints about the problems people were having with heavy duty tasks (which is what the mixer should have been made for!) due to cheap plastic housing holding the heavy duty metal gears, I contact KitchenAid to find out if this design flaw has been fixed. It has been and here is their response (note that they are saying that if you receive one of the models with the plastic housing they will replace it under warranty with the new metal housing. It is also important to note that the people who've had the problem have almost all stated that KitchenAid had great customer service and replaced their mixers with no ones with no problems

My Kitchen aide mixer from 1988 runs better than this new one. Very disappointedI am very disappointed in this mixer. I purchased a Kitchen aide mixer in 1988 and "Bess" is still running strong without any problems. I needed a second mixer so of course I wanted another kitchen aide mixer. Needless to say, "Bess" is still running strong for me and I am stuck with the new one. The whisk is cheap and flimsy, two of the wires have broken. It is difficult to place and remove the paddle. I love Kitchen aide products. I have a dishwasher, blender, food processor, etc and very pleased with them all but not this one. I spend more time on getting the bowl to snap into place and paddle on, that I frustrated and "Bess" is number one again.

Everything I wanted and then someI bought this mainly for kneading bread dough. The breads I make require lots of kneading, and are very sensitive to proper mixing of the dough. I simply couldn't get out of the house on time if I had to knead a loaf of bread in the morning before work.
This machine has upped the quality of my breads enormously. Despite kneading loaves for over 12 minutes by hand, I couldn't achieve the same quality as 4 minutes with this machine.
The breads I now produce are artisan quality. My friends simply won't believe me when I tell them that I baked these breads at home.
I wouldn't think of kneading dough by hand again.

New improved ME!This was a gift that I can never be thankful enough for! I have had several other brand stand mixers that can't stand up to the durability and reliability of KitchenAid. I have never had the courage to attempt a meringue or a custard but my first lemon meringue pie was a huge success! Ninja bread cookie batter was a breeze as well with the power of KitchenAid behind me! I can't wait to get some of the other attachments, such as the ravioli maker, to continue making new and exciting dishes that challenge me!

So much more awesome than your friends' Kitchen Aid MixersThis mixer is incredible. I use it for baking and absolutely love it. It is super powerful and the bowl is large enough to accommodate that triple batch of cookies you've been wanting to make. Whipping up some heavy cream for fresh whipped cream? Speed setting number 10 is thrilling! (I actually squealed with delight the first couple times I used the fastest setting -- I am thirty five!!) And when I visit friends houses and see their smaller Kitchen Aid mixers sitting proudly out on the counter top, I smile to myself because next to my Professional 600 mixer, theirs just looks silly. Mwahahaha!! I swear I have never ever been so excited about a kitchen appliance! THIS MIXER IS THE BEST!!

Versatile and Sturdy Centerpiece of My KitchenAfter years of wanting a Kitchenaid stand mixer, my husband surprised me with the kitchen appliance of this foodie's dreams. This brilliant red workhorse has flawlessly mixed cookie batter, pie filling, pie crust, bread dough, and chicken salad without any obvious strain on the motor. It's beautiful and I am in love. The only room for improvement in my eyes is that the attachments are not dishwasher safe, and I love to scoop up everything after a cooking adventure and throw it all in the dishwasher. The handwashing of the dough hook, whisk, and mixing attachment cramps my style a wee bit.

This product makes baking and cooking a breeze! The accessories are wonderful!If I only knew, I would have bought one years ago! Mixing sausage balls, cake layers, icings, and homemade dressing was so easy! I'm 51 and the whole family gathers at my house and somehow I do all the cooking and baking. This year it was effortless. I love the splash guard and cleaning everything was so simple. Not having to hold a mixer was priceless. And I was amazed how easily it mixed sausage balls! and I put it to the test too, not just one batch, I put 4 batches at a time and watched how well it mixed all the ingredients! I'm a true believer of KitchenAid Mixers! It is really worth the money and I wish I would have bought one many, many years ago! Thanks for a great product!
